...brilliantly defined bouquet with real mineralité and tension, showing none of the reduction or blowsiness of some of its noble peers. The saline palate is very well balanced, with a killer line of acidity and a finish that fans out gloriously.
...classy bouquet of buttered Meyer lemons, toasted nuts, dried white flowers and mandarin oil. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, richly textural but tangy, with a deep, tight-knit core, excellent concentration and a long, pure finish.
Moderate wood sets off a notably ripe and ever-so-mildly exotic nose that includes notes of peach and pear liqueur along with an abundance of floral and spice wisps. This is also imposingly scaled with its full-bodied and overtly powerful mouth coating flavors that deliver almost painful intensity and power on the dramatically long finish...big but impeccably well-balanced effort... A 'wow' wine.
Very winning and rich on the nose with wonderful richness on the palate. Bright and rich not at all heavy.
